Enlisted men are stupid, but extremely cunning and sly, and bear
considerable watching."

Not in my copy of the Officer's guide. Nothing even close.

That quote comes from the Army Officers Guide from 1897, I had the bumper
sticker with that same quote over my desk and always enjoyed the look from
all the officers that came to me needing something I had it for 4 years ( 3
squadron commanders, 30 flight commanders, 4 Ops officers) and never had a
negative remark on it. Guess it helped that I was also the squadron
scrounger and accomplished the impossible. That was in the 62nd FS at Luke,
I was the NCOIC of Life Support.

Two women on a cruise ship, getting to know each other ....



"So how did you pick this cruise ?" asked the first woman.


"Oh, my husband works for Cunard, so we picked it from a catalog"



"Well my husband works hard too - but I don't swear about it"







Cheers

So it's schoolboy jokes time is it?


"What kind of car have you got?"

"A Rolls-Canardly."

"Never heard of it."

"I call it that because it rolls down one hill and canardly get up the
next."

During WW2 the Nazis were so impressed by the B-17 they designed
their own version. I think they only built 2. If memory serves it
was called the Ou812.

Try Kg200 DL+XC fin No.124585 originally "Wulf Hound" of the 303rd
Bomb Group at Molesworth, force landed December 1942!

That's what I originally would have posted about. Good for you for
posting first. More on the aircraft he

It's not as cool as the Stirling with the tarpaulin over the nose section!
I'd have gone for a garden gate effect myself, or maybe a nice pair of draw
string curtains for the front gunner. ;-)
